Catch Me
Animal Alpha Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Do you like my face, do you like what you see?
Am I not as pretty as a girl can be?
I don't understand why you want to hide
Do you think I'm easy like Bonnie and Clyde?

I know you won't catch me, Mommy's on my side
Hell no, you won't catch me, Mommy's on my side
Nice piece of wood you've got there, baby
Ah, push it
Ah, push it
Push it real good

Give up all your thoughts, give up all you're dreams
Now let me hear you're fearful screams
Don't you feel kind of stupid now I've got your head?
I've got so many things undone, unsaid

I know you won't catch me, Mommy's on my side
Hell no, you won't catch me, Mommy's on my side




I know you won't catch me, Mommy's on my side
Hell no, you won't catch me, Mommy's on my side

Overall Meaning

Animal Alpha's song "Catch Me" is a dark and twisted tune that explores themes of power, control, and defiance. The lyrics open with a question to the listener, asking whether they find the singer's appearance attractive. However, it quickly becomes clear that the singer is not interested in their opinion and is instead using their own beauty as a tool to manipulate and taunt their audience. The line "Do you think I'm easy like Bonnie and Clyde?" suggests that the singer is aware of the cultural mythologizing of outlaws and criminals, and is perhaps drawing comparisons between herself and these figures.


The chorus of the song, which is repeated several times throughout, is a direct challenge to anyone who would try to control or capture the singer. "I know you won't catch me, Mommy's on my side / Hell no, you won't catch me, Mommy's on my side" implies that the singer has some kind of powerful protector who will keep them safe from harm. It's unclear who this "Mommy" figure might be - perhaps a maternal figure or even some kind of supernatural entity - but the repeated insistence on their protection creates a sense of defiance and invincibility that runs throughout the song.


The middle section of the song takes a more aggressive turn, with the singer challenging their listener to "give up all your thoughts, give up all your dreams" and submitting to their own sadistic pleasure as they hear their audience's screams. The line "Don't you feel kind of stupid now I've got your head?" suggests a kind of psychological warfare, where the singer is not only physically dominant but also able to undermine their listener's confidence and self-worth.


Overall, "Catch Me" is a provocative and unnerving song that uses power dynamics and mythological imagery to explore themes of control, domination, and vulnerability.
